Chapter 76 Chapter 75
No, definitely not.

He didn't know where his confidence came from, but he fantasized that when he saw Pei Yi again, he would tell her that he had absolutely no collusion with the Beizhai people, and that Wanglou had lied to her.

He excitedly walked around the room with his hands behind his back, completely forgetting the frustration and despair just now, and he was full of self-righteous joy.

She will definitely believe him, he only needs this chance, and he will never lie to her again.

Everyone wants to bargain with fate, as if giving in will get them what they want.

But what belongs to you, no one can take it away.

You can't keep what doesn't belong to you.

Mengshan Inn.

Shi Fang hadn't left the house since he went down the mountain, Li Kong twisted the secret letter he received after the assassination in the middle of the night in his hand, and knocked on Shi Fang's door.

"What are you here for?"

Shifang didn't want to see this slippery person who first tied up all the guards of the princess mansion indiscriminately, and then suddenly changed his temper to be extremely attentive.

"Why, is this not welcome? How can I say that my rank is half a rank higher than yours, and the people in the Princess Mansion are so unruly?"

Li Kong sat down on his own, leaned back in the chair and threw the scroll in his hand to Shifang.

"Don't blame me for being unreasonable last night, I only know that there are traces of Beidi people on Mount Meng, so I brought people to encircle and suppress them, how do I know who you are?

If people from Beizhai used the name of His Highness Jiarou to trick me into fleeing, how could I bear it?
Here, this is the secret letter sent to me by His Royal Highness Duan Wang last night. It was only after I read it that I realized that you are really His Royal Highness Jiarou's guards, and didn't I also help you find His Highness Jiarou? "

These words are [-]% true, Li Kong concealed the fact that he saw Wei Huai'en fall off the cliff with his own eyes, and only pretended to judge it based on the rut.

Shi Fang looked at the secret letter and verified King Duan's private seal, and then put away his hostility towards Li Kong a little.

Although the ranks are different, his prestige in the army made him not look down on Li Kong who did not rely on military merits to climb up in the Xuan Yu Division.

"Heh, you were lucky this time. Although His Highness fell off the cliff, his life was not in danger. Otherwise, you should be beheaded in our Northwest Army because of your crime of wasting time."

Li Kong blew on the hot tea in his cup, his eyes darkened, and then he asked again: "You said last night that you are also from Xuan Yu Division?"

Shifang let out a sigh, and took out a gold medal from his pocket to show it to Li Kong: "Look, I'm here to persuade you not to be obsessed with your majesty's secret order.

Your Majesty knows that you are secretly loyal to King Duan, but for the sake of saving you, there is still time to abandon the dark and turn to the bright. "

When Li Kong heard what he wanted to hear, he pursed his lips and pretended to be shaken, but continued to say: "How did Your Majesty know that I worked for King Duan? I... except for this, I have never done anything for King Duan. Something against the law?"

Shi Fang sat across from him, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it down after simply blowing on it.

"What are you pretending to be? Don't you forget that when His Highness Jiarou was in Mingzhou, it was found out that you were hiding important court criminals in your mansion? Who do you think sent someone to find the evidence outside your mansion?"

Li Kong tightened his grip on the teacup, then put it down in fear, stood up, walked to the side of Shifang and bowed his hands.

"Don't blame the commander. I was just confused for a while. I was fascinated by the woman's beauty and kept her. I will go back and clean up. I will definitely not commit another crime. Thanks to the emperor's kindness, Li Kong swears allegiance to His Majesty to the death."

"It's good to know." Shifang was very helpful.

"It's just... for many years in Xuanyu Division, I have also made many enemies. I don't know who else knows about this matter except His Majesty? I will be a member of a party in the future, so I can come to the door to socialize. Please also lead Let me know, it's a little effort..."

Li Kong laughed and poured another cup of tea for Shifang.

"Hey, don't worry about that. I'm not a talkative person. I haven't mentioned your matter to anyone else. Even His Majesty doesn't know about it. You just need to deal with that person."

"Is it?"

Li Kong drew out his waist knife and wiped Shifang's neck neatly, blood spurted out and fell into the teacup he just raised.

"Then you can die in peace."

Li Kong held the saber at his waist backwards, the back of the saber pressed against his forearm and was drenched in Shifang's blood.He still had a flattering smile on his face, but he took Shi Fang's life so easily.

"Ho..." Shi Fang finally let out a bloody cry, and fell back on the ground unwillingly, completely silent.

"The Tiger Guards Camp is nothing more than that."

Li Kong picked up the corner of Shifang's clothes, wiped the waist knife clean, and closed Shifang's dead eyes with some leisure.

He doesn't care about being upright, anyone who threatens Little Moon, and anyone who tries to separate them, deserves to die.

It's just that it's not a one-and-done death. He put away the knife and took the gold medal out of Shi Fang's body, thinking about how to get out.

"Come on."

He called his Xuan Yuwei in.

"Sir, this..."

Xuan Yuwei saw the corpse on the ground, and quickly closed the door.

"Look at this room, don't let anyone in, I'll go out, don't follow."

After finishing the order, Li Kong went to the stables to lead the horse out, and went straight to Mengshan Academy.

In Mengshan Academy, Xiao Qi was about to wake Wei Huai'en up for lunch.

Originally, he wanted to caress her cheek to wake her up, but when the hand touched her face, which had paled a lot in just one night, the force couldn't be lighter.

Xiao Qi touched the blue color under her eyes, and the small scar on her lips bitten by him, as if she couldn't find any trace of the anger from last night to morning, and couldn't even bear to wake her up.

He sighed, mocking himself that he would never be able to really be angry with her, then leaned down and kissed her forehead delicately, waking her up very gently.

"Huh? What time is it?"

Wei Huai'en didn't get enough sleep, completely forgot that the two of them had a quarrel, hooked his fingers habitually, put them on his face and closed his eyes, wanting to sleep for a while.

"It's just past noon, I know you're sleepy, so let's have some food and go back to sleep."

He gently rubbed her fingertips, picked up the meat porridge in the tray and blew it to her lips.

"The temperature is just right, eat quickly."

"Aren't you angry anymore?"

Wei Huai'en rubbed his eyes, remembering the awkwardness before going to bed.Perhaps it was because she was so fragile after being injured, her eyes turned red when she rubbed it.

"Wynn?" Xiao Qi had to put the bowl back and tried to take her hand away from her eyes.

"What's wrong? I'm not mad at you..."

"But you were so fierce just now, you even bit me..."

Once he felt aggrieved, even though Wei Huai'en was in a dangerous situation at that time, he didn't react in anger. After drinking the medicine to calm down his spirit, the fear and sadness that had been suppressed since falling off the cliff came out together.

"Woo..." The more she cried, the more sad she became, and she was afraid that the wound in her ribs would be involved, so she dared not speak out, so she could only sob in a low nasal voice, but tightly covered her eyes to prevent him from seeing the tears.

"I'm just afraid that you are in danger. Did I do something wrong? You also said that I don't like you..."

She took a few deep breaths and tried her best to keep her voice steady, but in Xiao Qi's eyes, she only felt regret for what she said to her just now.

"But you already knew what I wanted to do. You also said that you were willing to stay with me all the time. How can you be so heartless now? You are the one who lied to me..."

Wei Huai'en was still involved in his ribs, and trembled in pain, Xiao Qi also took advantage of this opportunity to pull down her tear-stained hands, and saw her little face that was completely covered in tears.

Just this appearance is enough to make him regret his actions, but she still accuses him of those angry words in a hoarse voice.

"Since you don't want me to take care of you, then you don't have to take care of me either. Liar, big liar, Xiao Qi, how can you treat me so badly? If you don't leave if you don't, you will only make me sad if you stay. I don't owe you anything, how can you be so heartless..."

"Okay, don't cry, I was wrong, I'm sorry."

Xiao Qi took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, but those apricot eyes that were always clear and calm could not stop the tears like a spring of tears.

She must be vigilant everywhere, and she must not make mistakes at all times. She has been tense for too long, but she never thought that even the closest and most trusted Xiao Qi would regard her kindness as abandonment.

Looking back, how could she not be sad.

"What do you want me to do? Xiao Qi, what do you want me to do."

She was so tired, and it was all her fault in the end.If there is a better way, she would like to hear it.

"Let's eat." Xiao Qi was stunned, kissed her eyelashes and put a spoon to her mouth.

Wei Huai'en was indeed hungry. After venting his emotions, he opened his mouth when he smelled the fragrance of the meat porridge.

No one spoke anymore, but tacitly, you and I finished the big bowl of meat porridge in one bite, and cleaned up the other small pastries.

"Actually, what makes me most angry is that you will jump into the carriage regardless of your own safety."

After the meal, Xiao Qi spoke with his back to Wei Huai'en.

"What plans and arrangements do you have? It doesn't matter to me. But since you have calculated everything, why are you taking risks? In fact, even if I die, I won't blame you, because it was just an accident, I just I want you to be safe and well.

I shouldn't be rude to you, sorry. "

Xiao Qi's hand groped backwards, caught her fingertips, then got into the gap between her fingers and stuck them to her palm.

"I'm sorry, Wynn. It's just that you can't want everything. "

Wei Huai'en frowned when he heard his words, and was about to refute when he turned his head and half-kneeled on the ground to meet her eyes.

"I'm not saying you have to give up anything, no, I've always felt that you are worth everything.

But after careful planning, you shouldn't even risk your life because of my accident, you know?

Or, just like when we met in the palace, just treat me as your pawn on Qingyun Road.

Either love me well, don't hide anything from me, let me know what you have to do, and I can help you.

Instead, they have decided to put me aside from the very beginning, but they will live and die with me, a person who knows nothing.

Wei Huaien, there is no such reason. "

Wei Huai'en lowered his eyes and watched him holding her hand, curling his fingers together with his.After being taught by his attitude that seemed gentle but actually made her more uncomfortable than angry, the grievance that calmed down had the momentum to make a comeback after blinking her eyes.

"So you're still mad at me."

She looked at him, wanting to cry.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Qi's back collapsed when he was lying beside the bed, he leaned over to her face and rubbed the tip of her nose, and sighed again helplessly.

"What can I do with you, yo? Don't talk, go to sleep, I will take care of these things, you don't have to think about anything, I'm here, go to sleep."

How could he have forgotten that his Highness, his Wynn, apart from those cold titles and double-edged sword-like authority, is just a loner with few people who even speak the truth.

In fact, he holds the weapon that can warm her the most and hurt her the most.

She loves him, even if she does it a thousand times or ten thousand times, she will choose to fall off the cliff with him without hesitation.

It's useless to say anything, even if it's her and her, even if they are so close, they will never be able to make each other compromise on the matter of loving each other.

There is no right and wrong, no right and wrong, they have already shown their truest hearts, so how can they criticize each other for not loving each other well enough?
After Xiao Qi waited for her to fall asleep, he also suppressed a yawn, shook his head and stood up again.

He limped up a chair and walked to the yard, listening to the birds chirping and thinking about how to formulate Shifang's words tomorrow, and planned to find time to chat with Ruan Yan alone.

Just as he was in a trance, the gate of the courtyard was knocked, and a little doctor girl who was different from the one who delivered the food pushed the door in, and timidly said to Xiao Qi, who had a strong aura: "My lord, someone is waiting for you at the back mountain gate, he said His name is Li Kong."

"Li Kong?" Xiao Qi frowned and stood up, went to the tree and broke a branch to serve as a crutch temporarily.

"I'm going to see him, and you stay here. If His Highness wakes up, just say that I went to the academy for a stroll, remember?"

"Remember, don't worry, my lord, I... no, Caomin will definitely take good care of His Highness!"

The little doctor girl jumped into Wei Huai'en's room like a rabbit, and Xiao Qi could see that Fang Rujing and her students had pure kindness and gratitude towards Wei Huai'en, which made him feel at ease to go out.

Back Mountain.

"Deputy Envoy Xiao, we meet again."

Li Kong waited outside the mountain gate with a smile on his face, only to see Xiao Qi's figure turning from the small path, and greeted him loudly.

Xiao Qi didn't answer, until he walked out of the mountain gate, took Li Kong and the gatekeeper a long distance away, and then looked at Li Kong, whose expression remained unchanged: "You smell like blood, what's going on?"

But Li Kong, who had changed into his outer robe, opened his cuffs to reveal his blood-stained shirt without hesitation, took a step closer to Xiao Qi and said, "Deputy Envoy Xiao, I'm here to negotiate a deal with you."

"You killed Shifang."

Xiao Qi seemed to have seen through Li Kong's plan, and pulled out all his trump cards before he spoke.

"You want me to help you clear up the matter of killing the former captain of the Tiger Guard Camp and the guard commander of the Princess Mansion, and to help you continue to conceal the inside story of Meng Keshu in your mansion. What can you do for me, just tell me.

But I'm not interested in Duan Wang's side, let me tell you something new. "

 All villains
